Catherine Poole Swimelar
September 25, 1963 – November
28, 2005
Cathy was a loving
and devoted, wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend.
She lived her life with joy, love and passion. In June of 2003,
Cathy was diagnosed with Stage III astrocytoma, a form of brain
cancer. Throughout her journey she fought this disease with dignity
and strength. She continued through the end to always help and
be concerned for others. She never complained nor did she question
the path in which her life would take. Cathy’s
courage, faith and determination will forever be impressed on
the hearts of those who knew her. Her Husband, three children
and her family are blessed with the knowledge that Cathy was
such a pillar of love and strength and her joyful outlook on
life will be with them forever.
Because Cathy did not lose her battle with cancer,
but succeeded in the journey of life— and for her unending concern
for others, this foundation has been established in Cathy’s
name and honor to help others in need in their battle with cancer.
"I will spend my heaven doing good
on earth. I will let fall a shower of roses. —
ST. THERESE
